Glimpse into thc Future.
Tho .purchase of the Coiumhia Canal, tho
property of tho State, by Major Pearce, who
is understood to bo the representative or
agent of Senator Sprague, thc famous cotton
spinner of Rhode Island, ls, wo hope and be?
lieve, thc boginriing of a movement which in
the course of a few yoars will mate Columbia,
tho capital of South Carolina,
A CtREAT MAN?F\CT?M.N? CHT,
whose influence shall be felt from the moun?
tains to tho soa. Ani in looking forward to
this result we take into consideration the great
advantages which Coiumhia enjoys, and which
make her peculiarly well adapted to the high
and important position which we now predict
for her.
Columbia is situated in the centre of a fine
country, and hy tho hues of railroad, of which
she is, as it were, the focal point, can draw to
hormills and factories all the raw material that
could be required. On the north is the Char?
lotte Road, running into North Carolina and
connecting with the railroad system of that
State. On the south and east is the South
Carolina Railroad, connecting with Charleston
and reaching with its connections tho whole of
Eastern South Carolina. On the southwest is
tho Columbia and Augusta Railroad, which,
when completed, will meet tho Georgia cotton
at Augusta and carry it to Columbia, to be
worked up into yarns or oloths. On the north?
west is the Greenville Railroad, which tra?
verses the northwestern portion of this
State, and will ultimately form a part
of the great inter-statal line of railroad from
Louisville and Cincinnati to Charleston. There
is then ia Columbia every facility for receiving
cotton and shipping the manufactured fabrics.
The city ia remarkably healthy, and for tho
purpose of building factories and dwelling
houses there are tracts of clay suitable for fine
brick, and quarries of granite of the same kind
as that used in the construction of the capitol.
This is a formidable list of advantages, and to
these may be added the important fact that
Columbia was in a position to give thc first
openintr for manufacturing entorprise, hy
offering fot sale and selling the well-known
COLUMBIA CANAL,
of which a brief sketch will doubtless be of
interest.
Opposite to the upper part of the Towu of
Columbia the Broad and Saluda Rivers join
and form tho Cou paree River. On thc Saluda
River, about three miles from the city, is the
well-known Saluda Faciory of Childs, Johnson
? Palmer, which now runs about four thousand
five hundred spindles. About one and a half
miles above Columbia, on the Broad River, the
canal commences. It was originally six milos
in length, and for three and a half miles down to
the neighborhood of Bridge-street is still in
good order. From this point down to the
mouth the canal is in ruins, it being difficult
in nome places to tell that a canal had ever
been cut, but the rights and franchises remain
and poss to the present owner. There will be
no difficulty in rebuilding the canal and re?
opening it throughout, and Kindler's brick?
yard, which Senator Sprague has purchased,
and through winch much of the canal rune,
will furnish the material for making bricks ot
an excellent q-nlity.
The average fall in the canal for the first
three miles is fourteen feet, an J for the remain
in? distance from nineteen to twenty-one feet;
and the supply of water being almost unlim?
ited, the canal eau be enlarged to an extent
commensurate with any power that may be re?
quired. If desired it may be made equal to
five thousand horse-power or more, and in tact
the whole water of the Congareo River might
be turned into the enlarged oana!.
According to tho conditions of the sale, the
purchosar will, within two years, widen the
canal to thirty feet, and deepen it to eight feet,
this work being begun within six months, und
$10,000 being expended upon it within twelve
months from the date of conveyance.
The question naturally suggests itself, will
this work, be done, and will there soon be s. en
FACTO HIES AND MILLS AT COLUMBIA,
so that she may reap the benefit of tho advan?
tages which we havo endeavored to describe ?
Tho reply is, that Senator Sprague and his
friends are not novices in industrial enterpri?
ses, and that they carry out and make success?
ful whatever they undartake to do. Senator
Sprague himso'.f controls cotton mills running
in all more than a quarter of a million spindles,
and slanghteis 15,000 bullocks yearly for tho
uso ot bia operativos. Ho is a man of largo
understanding and Liberal views, butin buying
real estate and investing capital in colton mills
at the South he is governed not by philanthropy,
bat by strict business principles. Governor
Sprague knows thtit cotton can be spun io the
South to great profit, and that cheap labor and
living, andaavingintransportation, waste, nsk
audioes, make a difference of twelve or fifteen
per cent, in favor of tho Southern cotton sp:n
ner. He h as carefully examined the mills now in
operation, apd alter eiamining tho wholo mat?
ter with the cool sagacity for wbicb he is no?
ted, has come lo the conclusion that largo
sums of money are to be made by operating
cotton mills at the South.
There is no doubt that work upon tho canal
will bo soon begun, and it remains to consider
what should be the immediate and ultimate re?
sulto to what ie to bo tho
COTTON CAPITAL OF THE STATE.
With the beginning of work upon tho canal
employment will be givea to a largo number of
laborers, in making bricks or quarrying stone,
and in working upon thc canal itself. This de?
mand for labor will last until thia part of tho
work is done, when it will be turned to tho con?
struction of tho nulls and buildings, and ol cot?
tages for the spcralivcs, if desired, and, finally,
to tho spinning of tho cotton. This will give a
livelihood to a largo number of women and
chiluron; for it must not bc forgot?j? that
every $1000 spout iu cotton mach i nary will
give work to ttvo operatives and support two
others. Thc first mills put up should run
forty thousand or fifty thousand bpindlcs,
which would support at least thirty-five hun?
dred persons. But tho one mill will set the
example to others. There will be a second and
a third and a fourth, so that before long there
should be runniuj iu the neighborhood of Co?
lumbia spindles enough to givo employment
to several thousand persons. And tho suc?
cessful operation of thc mills would encourage
bobbin-makers, machinists bud artisans of
every kind to settle near them, while all tho
wages paid the operators and the greater
part of the money paid for labor would i
bi spent with tho merchants and storekeep?
ers of the city. Some gloomy prophet might, .
ol course, object that all streams running down i
from the mountains are subject to freshets, I
which would endanger milling. But wc know 1
that this is bnt a minor difficulty, and not to ,
be compared for a moment with tho freezing' i
weather which daring the winter lochs up the
mills of the North and compels them to-pass
month after month without turning a wheoh
And if Columbia is . in doubt as to her good
fortune, and has not tho iaith which we have
in her future, let her think of Augusta, (Me..)
and
WHAT HILLS HAVE DONE
for that now wealthy city.
Forneyears ago the City of Augusta, appre?
ciating the value of mills and factories aa a
means of increasing trade and population,
bought a tract of land with water power, at a
cost of about $250,000, and presented it to Sena?
tor Sprague as a sile for cotton milla. Three
years has given to Augusta mills running forty
thousand spindles, and in loss than ton years
there may bo four hundred thousand. The
city is growing in population every day, real
estato bas doubled and tic Ved in value, and
tho citrons know that the best investment
they ?ver mada was when they gave away a
quarter of a million of dollars for the encourage?
ment of manufactures.
We do not say that Columbia is the only
place io tho State which will have mills an J
factories. There are many other favorable
situations for enteprise of the kind, and we
hope to see a cotton mill, largo or small, in
overy couDty of tho State. But Columbia
should be the central point, the manufacturing
centre of the State, and it her oitizens go man?
fully to work, let politics alone, and do all that
in them lios to add to the success of the plans
which aro now on foot, Columbia will soon take
position as a thriving and prosperous city, and
will set a blessed example of wealth iud good
fortune to her less iortunate and lesa practica1
neighbors.
TUE CREDIT MOBILIER.
HOW TO DEYELOPE AND BUILD UP
THE STATE.
Proposed Katabllkbmcntbf ?Credit Mo?
bliier-Tbc AVork it Might Do-For
matlon of Suburbs-Encouragement
Of li ni er prise.
The following proposition for tho establish?
ment of a Carolina Credit .Mobilier, upon the
plan of the gigantic corporation which has
had eo many ups and downs in Franco, will
doubtless be read with interest. We do not
know that our hoarded capital could bo drawn
immediately into so novel a scheme ; but it is
certain that our money should not lie idle, aud
that it cannot bo used for a better puipose
than that of developing and improving tho
State. And whether the Credit Mobilier can
be formed or not, there is sense and torco in
the views of our correspondent with rogard
to erecting cheap and comfortable houses for
3 ur laboring population :
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.
At diff?rent times you heve tried to convince
the public of the advantages of Charleston as
a business place, but our neighboring cities
make the same claim, and a superficial reader
at borne, as well as abroad, is not satis Qed with
mere assertions-be wants to see proofs. Can,
then, Charleston stand an examination and
still bear off the palm ? Is she in advance of
Savannah, Wilmiu^ton, Norfolk, New Orleans,
tc,? If not, then pvrsuasiens are of uo avail.
Charleston and Sooth Carolina at largo have
many natural advantages, which as yet are dor?
mant; but when properly developed will make
her rise in more than ber ancient strength. To
develope our resources we must apply capital
and labor. Wo have invited both. The capi?
talist says : You do not offer mc any greater
inducements than I enjoy at home. With you
[ cannot make auy other investment but lend?
ing you money, the interest OD which is rea?
sonable enough; bat I ran invest'at home, in
stock of our many manufacturing companies,
which pay me a higher dividend. Tho laborer
says : I tried to get employment with you. and
in response had the reply that you were unable
to give mo work, as you had several of your
friends at home yet out of employment, and
that a stranger at present atood h?r Jy any
chance.
What shah we do under these circumstances?
Let us try and help oursolves. We want capi?
tal. Outside of th; bank it is presumed that
Charleston alone has one million, and thc Stato
at large at least another million of dollars laying
idle. It is either in the shape of bank deposits
or in small or large amounts at homo. Divided
we fall, united wo stand. Distributed as the
the money now is, it bears no interest and docs
nobody auy good; but united and properly ap?
plied, it could start many enterprises, bear
high dividends and u. ive many persons employ?
ment. Let us take these two millions of dol?
lars and start with it a good stock company
like the Credit Mobilier in Paris, and many
similar institutions in Germany. The capital
is divided into sm ill shares, payable to bearer,
for the transaction of general hankingbusiueas,
and with the object of aiding tho progress of pub?
lic works.of promoting tho development of home
industry, and, perhaps, of consolidating into a
common stock tho shares and bonds of trading
companies. It is authorized to subscribe for
and to acquire public securities, as well as
shares and bonds in industrial enterprises,
viz: railroads, canals, mines and ether public
works; to iesuo ita own bonds for ati atnoun'
equal to its subscriptions and purchases, an I
after the completeissue of theonguu! .:.?;J, al of
S2,00fl,0C0, to issue its bond- equal io too times
this amount, l. e. to $2 ) 0JO 0J-?. By its char?
ter thc company should luve unlimited power
to engago in any enterprise, bein? only re?
stricted netto sell iu advance public securities
nor to buy them on time. This Civdii Mobilier
could then bo considered the mother of other
etitet prises, it could spread ita wings over
the whtilo State.
For Charleston, for instance, it would bo very
desirablo to rebuild the burnt district and
other waste places within its limits; to dram
and embellish tho samo by parks, wklo and
straight a.ernies planted with trcos, ?c. Tho
lind Let ween Shepherd-street and the city limits
ia being built up by degreos, but without sys?
tem. Lot that portion bc laid off like tho
upper part of New York. On tuc Cooper River,
towards Rtkersvillo, cut offhrsta park of some
hundred or more acres, aud the rest lay off in
broad aveauca and wide eidewalka crossed by
streets, and at the boundary lines cut a canal
from rrvo. to river. The avenues and slreets
should bo designated by ditches empting
either in this coital, or in both tho rivers
This would drain thc land; tho earth would
put sidowalks in order, and tho lots becom>
not only healthy, but would improvo in a jv
pcaronco and indicate where and how to make
improvements. On thc side of the canal op?
posite to the boundary of the city manufac?
tories c.iu'd bo erected, which, under the
heavy burdens of the city taxes must
avoid its limit until more popular ordinances
uro framed, to induce enterprises to enter
its lines. The operatives of such manufacto?
ries could live in this new suburb. An aera of
laud coats there now about S1000-or say $1G00.
An acre makes sixteen lots of twenty-live by
one hundred lee!; a Jjt "would cousequcuMy
not coat over $10U; build on each a one and .it
half story wooden rotifju weatherboard .'il
nrhitewa lied house, fifteen by tini ly feet, and
fencj, which would cost uot over $250-in ad
$350. R?nt it at twelve per cent., and tho rc- I
turn ou the capital invested would bi.- ?'! 50 per
month. Tue tonant would have four rooms;
would have accommodations lor a cow, pigs
md fowls, which would be worth to thc occu?
pants at least aa mucti aa thc rent amounted
to, aud consequently he v.onld live on the
premiaos, so to speak, for nothing. Ho could
have thc opportunity of workiu? in ot* outside
the city limits. By mcans'of the city railway,
which, no doubi, would extend ita track as far
is thc city boundary, he could aH conveniently
work at the battery as he could at R.kersville,
is a season ticket would cost him not much
more than one-fifth gt what he now pays
iu rout for a small cramped up, sickly tene?
ment
A building company could procure a number
sf such blocks and erect on them in a lump.
3ay fitly or one hundred such buildings at a
time, uufcliise also lota in the now burnt dis
.'richs, erect on them small but, u?rkapa, a bet?
ter class of buildings, stores. 4o., just as tho
lemana should require it. The companv could
?rect machinery for making bricks, &c. To
make brick hy machinery requires intelligent
laborers who might not be able to HYO in orr
already established brick yards. But very tine
clay can.be bad on the line of tbe railroad of
which bricks eau bo made equal to any Phila?
delphia pressed bricks. The Credit Mobilier
would assist in creating the building company.
The building company would create improve-:
merits and labor, and the laborer would make
uso of the improvements, and from bis earn?
ings invest in the shares bf the Credit Mobi?
lier. At the same time lot' a now company buy
the Kalmia cotton mills; another erect a cotton
manufactory on the Columbia Canal. Tho
Credit Mobilier takes shares in all of them if
required. And 1 do not see why we could
not Lave a cotton factory, or at least begin
by spinning yarns, in Charleston. And this
would be tho work of the Credit Mobilier.
WASHINGTON GOSSIP.
The present Con:ro3fl oxpires on the fourth

rnOTECTOEATE FOB HATTI AND ST. DOSILN'Q J.
General Banks has permission hom the Com?
mittee on Foreign Relations to report a bill to
provide for a protcc.orate over Hay ti and San
Domingo. Tho committee were not in favor of
it, but.are willing that the subject shall be
brought up and Bottled by tho House. Mr.
Soward is in favor of it. Its adoption by .tho
House is problematical.
THE VIRGINIA DELEGATION. .'
The Virginia delegation of Conservatives
continue their sessions for conference daily,
but as yet nothing lemarkable has trans?
pired. The members have hud a few inter?
views with Radical Congressmen, but harp
not progressed far enough to form an opin?
ion of tbe probable result of their mission to
tb is city.
Tho action of the committee will conclude
nothing, as it is tobe submitted lo the conven?
tion of delegates elected by tho people, pro?
posed to be held in Richmond on the 10th of
February. Although the programme Je con?
sidered settled, the committee will remain rn
permanent organization, keeping a quorum of
their body here until something is accomplish?
ed for tho relier of their State. Tbey have
' pledged themselves to allow no discouraging or
untoward event to deter them from an
earnest and persistent] pursuit of this object.
MISS SUE MURPHY.
Miss Sue Murphy, whose claim has been so
much discussed before the Senate, and who has
thus become famous, is quite an attraction
among Congressmen and others, who discover
in the Southern lady a sprightly,cultivated mind
and a comely person, withal* pleasing to leok
upon. It is cunuutgly suggested ttat Miss Mur?
phy's claim was selected as tho test case m Con?
gress because of the lady's charms, which would
enthuse her advocates, and at tho same time
work upon the sympathy of tho grave and rev?
erend senators, who would, but for tueso fe?
male attractions, obdurately roi use to foot
Mies Sue's bill.
THE NORFOLK RIOTS.
The m.\ils?lbring fuller accounts than these
already published of the collision bet ween the
United States troops oudnogroes near Norfolk,
Virginia, on Thursday last:
Lieutenant Farragut, with a detachment of
troops, went down to the assistance of tho
civil authorities, and while cn route to the
farm occupied by the negro squatters who
were to bo ejected, pa-ued an aimed force of
seventy-five negroes iu th3 woods, who made
nu demonstratiou. Upon nearing the squatters'
quarters, a fresh number, variously armed, re
treated to a house wilie i i*>as surroui'dod.
.sergeant Culiou advanced t.) tho door, mid was
instantly shot, which so infuriated thc troops
that they returned thc fire, and rushing into
tim bouse, bayonet.ed ono or two of tho nc
groos. i bree were killed outright. Thc troops
were witudrawn from tho scene of the affray
after effecting tho anent of two of the ring?
leaders. A delegation of negroes thou waited
upon the officer, and demanded tho arms that
were captured, which were refused. The
spokcsniau rcloitod, "If that is tho tray things
were ?omg, every white mmi would bo run out
of the country." The citizans of Koiupsvillo
picketed that village, the woods being filled
with armed negroes tho entire night. A negro
named Hedges, a former member of tho con?
stitutional convention, ts reported to havo oc?
casioned thc resistance to civil authorities by
an inflammatory speech, in winch he told
them to '"hold ou to thu properly and fight to
the last."
A special telegram to thc Richmond Dis?

Lieutenant-Colonel Garrick Mallory, of Gen?

much virgin soil to operate upon, bul tho cot?

long since, abandoned tho idea of producing
large crop3 without fertilizers. During the
war all commercial manures were excluded;
the cotton lands ware planted iu corn from
year to year, and wore very much reduced by
that exhausting crop. The years 18G.J and 1867
were years of hope and disappointment; low
prices of cotton, unpropitious seasons, nign
prices of provision?, uncertai n labor of freed?
men, all contributed to bow down tho cotton
planter. The present yenr, however, has been
a year of jubilee; the picture is reversed, and
i the cotton planter sees there is a brilliant fu?
ture before him, if he can only Lave a govern?
ment that will protect bis industry. Now that
the ports are all open, and the commerce of the
world is freo to him, he sees no poor land
around him, but pushes hie plough bravely
along, knowing that if abundant crops are not
made the fault is his own, if the seasons aro
propitious. Just as it is at the North, if luxu?
riant crops are made there upon old lands, it
is becauso Yankee int eilige ice and energy are
employed in the cultivation o? them. The same
results are attained here in au encouraging do
gree. .
Small farms are now taking the attention; a
bale of cotton to the acre is beginning to bo
r 'garded as no very great achievement. Am?
bitious planters are looking higher, and they I
do not suffer land to be "poor." They know it
eau be made productive, and they are doing it.
No ono now thinks of the minimum prices of
twelve months ago. At the public sales in
j Marlboro' County, some of thtee "poor"
lands bave recently sold as high os fourteen
dollars per acre, and ten dollars would scarcely
be a l'a ir average.
Labor can bo had at lower rates than in any
portion of the North. Fifty cents a day, by
tho single day, is considered as fall price for a
laborer (freedman), aud one hundred dollars
by the year, with rations, is os much as any of
I them would expect. True, it is not of the very
beat; but the freedmen are improving in every
respect, and the fact is now plain that the
Southern people cannot, and will not, do with?
out them. Moat of them are living with their
former owners, on wages, and the distrust of
1865 is gradually wearing away, and a healthy
state ot feeling is fast being re-established be
tvreen the two races. Instances do occur, oc
ctisionally, which are at variance with this
statement; but they are occasional, and do not
contradict the growing condition of a better
state of feeling generally. With tho "peace"
that ie promised us by General Grant, all will
yet be well in old South Carolina.
In addition to this, there is a very generally
expressed desire that there should no longer
be any coidneBS between the people of the
North and ot tb) South. If there are those at
tbe North who would like te make their homes
among us, let them come along. There is no
doubt that any such will be cordially received,
and in that way only can we firmly reunite the
people who have been antagonists so long,
only because thoy were strangers to each other.
Very respectfully. C. W.
Marlboro' County, 8. C., Decembef 25,1868.
FOREIGN SUMMARY.
-BaronJames de Rothschild of Paris, left
his widow the handsome dower of $300, OOO a
year.
- The remarkable proposition is made to cut
up the lava lately thrown out by Vesaviua, sell
it for paving stones, and use tho proceeds for
the benefit of the sufferers by tho eruption.
-Queen Olga, of Greece, behaves in a very uu
queenly but proper manaor. She gives her in?
fant heir an airing by walking the streets
bearing him in her arms, and atops to talk
with every young mother she meets.
-Two dwarfs, the "gentleman" a famous
circus performer, were married at Rouen,
France, recently, and twt-lvo hundred persons
were present at the wedding. The bride is a
seamstress.
-It is rumored in England that the Bishop
of Lincoln will decline promotion to the see of
London, in which case Dr. W?borforce, Bishop
of Oxford, will be translated to London. This
appointment would prove very unpopular with
the Low Church party.
-Llng-sian-man is a Chinese bandit who is
no? expiating his crime in a box so ingenious?
ly arranged that he can neither sit, lie nor
stand, while his head and hands protrude. In
that position he will bo allorte J to make him?
self as comfortable OB circumstances will per?
mit until he starves to death.
-Apropos of Patti's coming trip to St.
Petersburg, a certain Paris photographer re?
ceived a message from the city of the Czar:
"Send throe thousand copies of the Marquise
by next train." Somebody, however, left out
the final "e," and so three thousand portraits
of the Marquis are steaming away to St.. Peters?
burg.
-Ritualism in England, it is said, has al?
ready caused such a demand for "stoles"
and other high-charch vestments, that some
tailors are making great profit while the
ball is rolling, and, BO iar as can bo judged
(rom present appearances, the furnishing of
t-ucb articles is likely to become a separate
branch of the trade.
-Those who entertained the largest concep?
tions of the splendor of ancient Rome are
astounded by the magnificence of the treas?
ured brought to light in the excavations of the
Emporium Romannm. Beautiful and highly
adorned blocks of rare marble have been
taken out in great abundance, and there seems
to be no limit to the richness of this quarry of
antiquities.
-Theatrical performances are exhibited for
a very low price in the second ctr third class
phces of amusement in London. Competition
has brought down tho admission to tho
Standard Thoatro to twelvo cents for tho pit
and eirrht couts for tho gallery. At another
theatre, tho prices aro eight cents to tho boxes,
four cents to tho pit, nnd two cents to the gal?
lery. Ihe performances, howover, are short,
two entertainments hoing givon on tho same
evening.
-Mr. Lowe, tho new Chancellor of tho Ex?
chequer, has always boen tho terror of Parlia?
mentary roportcrs, because althousrh an admi
rablo s oe ak er, his enunciation is very rapid
and indistinct. lu bis new position bc" will be
obliged to make speeches of great length, and
abounding in numbors-aiid figures, which will
lax theil powers of writing to the very utmost.
Besides, he always speaks so tersely that every
word ia necessary to the speech, bia stylo being
o' tho lew that caunoi lo improved by the re?
porter.
.? -Some of thc English papers aro discussing
Mr. Bright's probable courso in caso a war
should bicak out ?hilo ho was a minister, lt
is stated that ho consulted a brother Quaker
upon thc question whether, it ho should ac?
cept tho secretaryship for India, ana war
should break out in those possessions, ho would
bc looked uuon aa sanctioning war, and it is
hinted that bis apprehension of such an event
was a leading cause of his refusai ol' that posi?
tion. But it if likely (hat if war in any quar?
ter should be resolved upon while ho is in the
"cabinet, he would deem it bia duty to resign.
-The income of Queen ViciOria is fixed by
law at $1,925,000 per annum, hut this amount
H not under her personal control. The som
mentioned is divided into six items, tho first
of which, S300.000 ia the money paid to tho
Queen m monthly instalments. Item second
is $(>56,300, for thc payment of the salaries of
! tho houaohold, from the lord of the bed-cham?
ber tc tho pages. Item third, $362,500, is for
the expenses of the household. The remain?
ing hems, amounting to $106,200, aro for the
payment of civil pensions, and are under the
control of thc Premier.
-The following ia tho lotter which Berryer
wrote from his death-bed to tho Comlo "de
Cliarubord: 4 O Monseigneur, O my Kiu?!
they tell me my last hour is at baud. I dio
willi thc sorrow ol not having witnessed thc
triumph ol your hereditary rights, cunac."ra?
ting the establishment arni expansion of tho30
libemos which our country needs. I carry
these wishos np to heaven for your Majesty,
for her air.jcsly lim Queen, for our bolov?d
France! That they be less unworthy of find?
ing favor in tho eyes of the Almighty, I de?
part fto.n this lifo provided with all thc aids ot
our bl msed religion. Adieu, sire; may heav?
en protect von and preserve FranccI Your
devoted and faithful *ubjpct, BERRYER."
-Agentleman in London fell iuloviwitha
poitratt of a boalifni girl widen he saw inapho
lographer'a saloou, and declared he would
make thc original his wife. "You cannot do
so,"roplicd tho photographer, "for she is only
a servant." He vowed thai* this should make
uo difference, At laat it was agreed that tho
gentleman should dine at the photographer's,
that tho girl should wait upon him, aud that he
should thus have au opportunity of seeing
whether bia admiration was deep enough to
aland the sight of his goddess m cap and apron.
It stood that test, and very soon the servant
goddess became tue wife. "Tho relation of this
story in a London paper is aaid to have already
caused several pretty servant gills to offer
their taces to photographers.
-On December 14th, thc seventh anniversa?
ry ot the death of Prince Albert, the Queen
and her family joined in a solemn service
which was performed in tho mau3cleam erect
ea in MG gaxuuuo au LUV iou ?? ?.>|^?..
House, near Windsor Castle. The sarcopha?
gus in which the coffin of Prince Albert is laid
is hewn out of a solid block of dark gray
Scotch granite, with a cavity sufficient for two
coffins. Upon the ponderous lid, which fits
closely to the lower part of the sarcophagus,
and upon the half exactly over the coffin, lies
the recumbent figure of the deceased Prince,
wrapped in royal robes ana with his head sup?
ported by a cushion. This work of art was ex?
ecuted by Baron Marocbetti. Pour large
bronze angels with clasped hands and out?
stretched wings relieve the otherwise simple
appearance of the sarcophagus.
-The Queen of Belgium, it is said, has re?
gained tbe affections of her royal husband by
the great self abnegation with which she de?
voted herself to nursing her insane sister Car?
lotta. Three years ago a coolness had arisen
between the Queen and the King, which
threatened to lead to a permanent separation.
For a whole year they treated each other in
the most frigid manner; but when the Queen
brought Carlotta from Miramar to the palace
of Lacken, and the King had embraced his
poor sister, he turned to his wife, who had
averted her face, and was hardly able to res?
train ber tears. He laid his hand on ber shoul?
der, whispered a few words in her ear, and the
Queen, with streaming eyes but a radiant face,
threw herself into his arms. From that day
forward they have treated each other again
as if they were once more ardent young lov?
ers.
-The Grand Orange Lodges of Ireland are
in one more angry quandary. They have is?
sued an address ana protest against thc pur
poses of Mr. Gladstone's Ministry, and declared
that the latter meaos to govern Leland
through the intervention of the Church of
Borne. They may not be very far out in that.
The English Government has, at various
times, procured the interference of the Pope
to check the agitation of the sister island. In
1815 Pius VII sent his rescript to Ireland to
keep the priests out of the Catholic movement.
In 1845 there was another. These things had
always their powerful effects. They helped to
baffle the Repeal movement, and no doubt the
Fenian movement as well. In return for such
benefits, the English Government allows the
Catholic hi?rarchies to come back to England
and Scotland as well as to Ireland. John Bnll
is no longer afraid of the Pope. The whirli?
gig of time brings in very strange revenges,
when the British Empire can find in the Papa?
cy one of the guarantees cf its integrity.

STOMACH BITTERS to put it in proper trim and
beep it so. Tbe stomach is shamefully maltreated.
In the firs t place, thc food wbi-h its juices arc in?
tended to di'solve. is too frequently thrown into it
hastily, and in a half-masticated condition, in which
state the gastric acid cannot properly act upon it
The result is dyspt-psia. Then comes the doctor,
and, finding the digestive organs weak and the bow?
els iucrt, he proceeds to weaken and paralyze still
more with drastic purgatives. These tending-as
they alway.-? do-to produce a aalutary change, he
tells thc invalid that medical seieuco can do no m ore
for him. Th is, with all due delerence, is a m is take
one of those mistakes which Talleyrand said were
tantamount to erina's. What (he dyspeptic needs is
invigoration, strengthen the stomach with HOS
